Bayern, 1965. Kaum ein Jahrzehnt hat Deutschland gesellschaftlich so revolutioniert wie die sechziger Jahre. Der Kalte Krieg beherrschte das politische Klima, der Minirock eroberte die Mode, und die Beatles machten dem heimischen Schlager Konkurrenz. Von all dem unberührt scheint das bayerische Dorf Lehrbach - bis zu dem Tag, als Julia Welling (Henriette Richter-Röhl) auftaucht, um im Auftrag der katholischen Kirche ein Kinderheim aufzubauen. Ihre modernen pädagogischen Erziehungsmethoden und ihre emanzipierte Art passen so gar nicht zum traditionellen Familienbild, das auf dem Land noch immer herrscht. Dort hat der Mann das Sagen, gehört die Frau an den Herd und gelten Kinder vor allem als billige Arbeitskräfte in der Landwirtschaft. Kein Wunder, dass nicht nur die Bauern, sondern auch Pfarrer Weber (Andreas Lust) und Bürgermeister Huber (Stephan Zinner) nicht gut auf die zugereiste Städterin zu sprechen sind. Schließlich setzt sich Julia über ihre Pläne hinweg und kauft statt der alten Gerberei eine leerstehende Kaserne der amerikanischen Truppen, um darin das Kinderheim einzurichten. Unerwartete Unterstützung erhält Julia von David Carter (David Rott). Der US-Major wickelt die Auflösung des Militärstandortes in Lehrbach ab und ist von Julias Selbstbewusstsein fasziniert. Doch die Sympathie, die beide für einander empfinden, wird schon bald von Julias Zweifel überschattet, ob ihre Liebe eine Chance haben kann. Denn als Soldat verkörpert David alles, was Julia ablehnt

The history of Danish country church architecture is told by showing scenes of how the church was used by the congregation, beginning with the celebration of mass in a small and simple wooden church 800 years ago, and ending with the congregation singing in a village church of to-day. The development and the growth of the pattern of church architecture is shown. Dreyer in this film shows a series of churches from different periods with churchgoers in period clothing. Each period is separated by a shot of a church bell double-exposed on the sky. Although the film has a vibrant and instructive way of communicating the different epochs and styles to students, it does not exhibit the artistic quality that usually distinguishes a Dreyer film, except perhaps in some of the costumes, which were originally made for Day of Wrath. The board of Dansk Kulturfilm in autumn 1945 decided that their planned church film would exclusively be about village churches. Dreyer would rework the script that was written by editor and folk high-school principal Bernhard Jensen, aided by a committee of experts consisting of architect H. Lønborg-Jensen and Victor Hermansen, curator at the National Museum of Denmark. Dreyer had a first draft ready in mid-March, entitled Kirken er et gammelt Hus (The Church Is an Old House), which was distributed to the members of the committee for their comments. In the last half of July, Dreyer and Victor Hermansen travelled the country to look at suitable churches. They researched the details and at Dreyer’s request a number of technical changes were made to the churches, including the removal of porcelain holders for electrical wiring in Tveje Merløse Church. On 4 July, Dreyer went in advance to Ringkøbing. Shooting was set to start a few days later with the arrival of the director of photography, Preben Frank, who had fallen off a ladder and broken his leg, Fortunately, he was ready to cautiously start working again within a few days, with his leg in a cast. Otherwise, the production went without a glitch. Everywhere, Dreyer said, they were well received at the vicarages and they had no problem getting enough extras. On 1 august, they returned to Copenhagen with almost all their footage in the can. They only needed to film the church in Skelby, where the weather had been against them, plus a Swedish wooden church in Hedared. The economy was distressed so soon after the war, especially when it came to foreign currency, but there were no real wooden churches left in Denmark and building an interior set in the studio would be too expensive. The finished film was shown for the first time on 24 September 1947 to a small, closed circle, which included the Minister for Ecclesiastical Affairs. In December 1947, as was Dansk Kulturfilm’s standard practice, the film was presented to the press, politicians and others on a programme with four other short films.
